How to measure yourself
Always measure yourself in underwear or lightweight clothes. And don't pull the tape too tight!
1. Chest
Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape straight across your back
Measure around the narrowest part of your waistline, keeping the tape close to your body
Measure around the fullest part of your hips (about 20cm (8") below your waist)
Measure from the top of your inside leg to the edge of the hem
5. Waist to Knee
Measure from where you like your skirts/pants to sit (natural waist, low waist) down the side of your leg to the middle of your knee.
